Brain Injury, Medical Ethics and Disability Rights Informational Session

This course is offered in collaboration with the Consortium for the Advanced Study of Brain Injury (CASBI) at Weill Cornell Medical College. Students study and work collaboratively on group-authored legal scholarship on the rights of individuals with brain injury and the legal, scientific, and societal barriers that can limit their maximal integration into society. 

The group meets approximately every other week, at Yale, under the leadership of Dr. Fins, the nation's leading expert in this field and Professor of Medical Ethics at Cornell. Past iterations of this collaboration have generated more than a dozen student co-authored publications with excellent placement in legal journals.
